Answer:

20.0 cm

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

The normal power for distant vision is 50.0 D. A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the power of her eyes. What is the closest object she can see clearly?

Solution

Now, the power of a lens, P = 1/f = 1/u + 1/v where f = focal length of lens, u = object distance from eye lens and v = image distance from eye lens.

Given that we require a 10 % increase in the power of the lens to accommodate the image she sees clearly, the new power P' = 50.0 D + 10/100 × 50 = 50.0 D + 5 D = 55.0 D.

Also, since the object is seen clearly, the distance from the eye lens to the retina equals the distance between the image and the eye lens. So, v = 2.00 cm = 0.02 m

Now, P' = 1/u + 1/v

1/u = P'- 1/v

1/u = 55.0 D - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 50.0 m⁻¹

1/u = 5.0 m⁻¹

u = 1/5.0 m⁻¹

u = 0.2 m

u = 20 cm

So, at 55.0 dioptres, the closet object she can see is 20 cm from her eye.

Answer:

(a) F = -4.01 * 10^{-15} N

(b) a = 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2

Explanation:

Parameter given:

Electric field, E = 2.5 * 10^4 N/C

(a) Electric force is given (in terms of electric field) as a product of electric charge and electric field.

Mathematically:

F = qE

Electric charge, q, of an electron = - 1.602 * 10^{-19} C

F = -1.602 * 10^{-19} * 2.5 * 10^4\\\\\\F = -4.01 * 10^{-15} N

(b) This electrostatic force causes the electron to accelerate with an equivalent force:

F = -ma

where m = mass of an electron

a = acceleration of electron

(Note: the force is negative cos the direction of the force is opposite the direction of the electron)

Therefore:

-ma =  -4.01 * 10^{-15} N\\\\\\a = \frac{-4.01 * 10^{-15}}{-m}

Mass, m, of an electron = 9.11 * 10^{-31} kg

=> a = \frac{-4.01 * 10^{-15}}{-9.11 * 10^{-31}}\\\\\\a = 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2

The acceleration of the electron is 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2

For the answer to the question above, if your question is a lever with a pivot and which sounds more likely ...then I would say from the principle of moments: F1*d1=F2*d2 

<span>given F1=high and F2=low ---> d1 must be low and d2 high for the equations to be balanced. </span>

<span>So the answer is simply: Inversely</span>

As voltage was being increased, what did you observe about the motion of charges in the external circuit?
Nonamiya [84]

The top plate grew more positively charged as the voltage was raised, while the bottom plate became more negatively charged. Accordingly, the electron moves from the top plate to the bottom plate.

<h3 /><h3>What is a voltage?</h3>

When charged electrons (current) are forced through a conducting loop by the pressure of an electrical circuit's power source, they can perform tasks like lighting a lamp.

In a nutshell, voltage equals pressure and is expressed in volts (V). The name honours Alessandro Volta (1745–1827), an Italian physicist who developed the voltaic pile, the precursor of the modern household battery.

Early on, voltage was referred to as electromotive force (emf). This is the reason why the symbol E is used to denote voltage in equations like Ohm's Law.

The words "potential difference" and "voltage" are frequently used interchangeably. The potential energy difference between two places in a circuit might be a better way to define potential difference. How much potential energy there is to transport electrons from one specific place to another depends on the differential (measured in volts). The amount indicates the maximum amount of work that could possibly be done through the circuit.

For instance, a standard AA alkaline battery provides 1.5 V. Electrical outlets seen in most homes provide 120 V. The more electrons a circuit can "push" and do work with, the higher the voltage in the circuit.
